tSrtCIAL TELEGRAM TO TIIE DISPATCH.
Set York, Aug. 20. The Iron Age re
ports the condition of the iron and steel
markets as follows:
American rip The New York market
has shown very few changes, the only item
of interest being unconfirmed rumors of
the selling of Southern gray forge on the
basis of fn .r0. Northern brands arc quoted
at Sir. 7.18 00 for Xo.-l; S16 0016 50
for No. 2 and SU 0014 50 for cray forge.
Southern irons sell at 810 0017 00 for Xo.
1; SK. 231G 00 for Xo. 2; 515 5016 00
for Xo. 1 Eoft, and ?H 00U 50 for gray
fonro.
?iiosclcisen and Yerro Mancancse The
market has remained exceedingly dull.
There are reports than one of the leading
rail mills has asked that deltvcriesof forcisii
tjiicijelcisen !e postponed en account of the
closing down of thevorlcs. We continue to
quote, nominally: Spicjtelciscn, $27 504T2S CO,
and ferro amnganc-", $Ct .TCSTCl (r).
Billets and Hods In domostie billets the
market is dull, while in foreign billet there
1ms only been one inquiry of consequence.
Importers name $31 5"5!31 75 for forclcn
stock. Domo-tle open Dearth billets are
held :it 3j (.. Of), Idle domestic vlre rods
in the Last aic quoted at $37 75$J:.b (Mat tidc
wntet. We note the sale of a lew thousand
ton- of tnrvin ire rods for shipment to the
Pacific coast at prices lower than thoe
"uliich could be made hy home producers,
chiefly on account of 'low freights trom
Europe to l'acilic coast norts. Conferences
are reported to he (roin;; on between Amer
ican i m rod manufacturers, a gathering til
this kind having akeii place at a leading
seaside ieoit. From tin est come reports
of a large hnsincss in domentic rods the de
tails of which, however, arc. not yet avail
able. Steel Hails Eastern mill do not report a
slnclotransaetion of consequence, and there
is little 1m-ine m the market. The Eastern
mills are ranidlv exhausting their orders.
and it seems piohnhle that some of them
will he forced to close down entirely at an
early date. In fact, one of the mills has al
ready notified those with whom it has con
tract for ore pig and spiegcl that deliveries
must be stopped for the present. The price
remains unchanged at $30 7.'4J3l 00 at tide

they are still woik'ng busilv on old orders,
the amount of woik for architectural pur-

Little Ilusiness In IMr Iron, but Tig
Tin
Transactions Are Illicit Hotter.
tsrr.ctAL TLLL.cn m to the dispatch.
Nfw York, Aug. CO The foreign metal
markets are thus reported by the Iron Age:
In the London market for pig iron warrants
bu-lncss ha- been small during tho past
week and prices have undergone little
clmnge. Local deliveries of Scotoii pig are
Ireer, although consumers hold back in ex
pectation of lower prices, but foreign de
mand is better and -tocks in public stores
bavo been reduced to 5)1,001 tons. Cleveland
warrants touched 43 under the influence of
a reduction in the stock in store to 154,000
tons nnd rumors of a strike by cnjxiue men.
Latest sales or warrants were at 47i3i!47s
4d lor -cotch, 3vs Gd for Cleveland and 4s 5,1
tor hematite.
lig tin transactions have been on a more
liberal -cale during the last half of the week,
and pneos ha o averaged higher, chiefly un
ler the Influence ot scarcity of prompts.

in the wek. The turn has encouraged
operations for long account, and ireer buy
ing on the part of consumers, together with
good stnti-tical position, 1ms also helped to
Miirun the market. The tin plate market is
Jinn, with IS- at Swansea named as strictly
Inside price for ordinarv cokes. There are
110 signs of an pressure to make miics 011

offered rather more freely by some sellers,

Stottd i k. Aug. 20. The coke market is in
about the same condition as reported last
week. The changes aro most noticeable
vhen there i- an improvement or depres-
eloii in the iron umiket, and of latethcro has
liecn but few, if any, changes in that market.
The demand for coke is, however, certainly

FEVERISH GRAIN -MARKETS.
A Clique, Aiming at a Corner in September
Corn, Dcpresies That Cereal Wheat
Anain Bullish, Advancing ns nigh ns
SI 08 1-2 A 1'anlc of Shorts In Oats.
CIIICA;o The grain markets were again
feverish, and subject to l-apid and wide vac
ation in price in the early trading this
morning. Wheat and oats continued ex
cited, with occasional spells ot dullness, and
closed with decided ndvancos, but corn,
after opening decidedly higher, grow dull
and weak and failed to respond
to the later advances in the other cereals.
This was due to fears of manipulation by n
cliqne which is said to comprise n number
of heavy loc.il houses with Eastern liacking,
who are supposed to bo preparing 11 corner
on September. There were also suspicions
of many decreases in wheat, but thoevi
Ucnccofthis was not conclusive, as the news
of thedav was sufficient in itself, consider
ing tho nervous market, to cause the ad
vance. Wheat opened with a bull hurrah, with
December quoted at trom $105 to $105,
ugaiiifet $1 01 at the clo-e yesterday, and sold
quickly up to $1 m;, followed by an almost as
speedy decline to $1 MS It lingered in that
neighborhood lor a time and then took a
dip downward to fl 0IJ., relwunded to$l 05,
broke to 1 04J4. AH tnis occurred within
the first two hours of the session.
The fluctuations later in the day displayed
the same nervousness and uncertainty
among the traders, hut prices moved upon a
higher pl-uie. About 12 o'clock the price
Bhot up 111 live minutes irom ?1 054 to 1 1.7,
diopped back U'c, and then Jumped again,
touching fl 07?(,: hesitated lor a lime, then
bounded to $ 1 1', but under heavv offer
ings near the close, brouo to and closed at
H n'tji.. Th trading became very animated
at the higher range cf prices, and a repetl
tloimf the panicky ;-:.itc .1 last Saturday
and Mo;id-iv appeared imminent forn mo
ment or tUO.
PT'ie!-i'Miews was strongly hulllsh.biit the
great Dnlge of the day was due to a dispatch
to the effect that the Itussian Government
had issued an order piohibiting the export
of wheat contniiiin !" per cent of rye,
and another cablegram which reported the
prohibition of exports of rye from Finland.
The corn market was very nervous and
erratic The croud were all buyers or all
sellers at the same moment on revcral oc
casions. The shorts were in hot wafer
throughout most of the session, andafraid to
trade on account of the supposed corner.
There was quite a demand here for corn for
direct shipment to England. September In
different parts or tho pit at tho
same time sold at tho opening
from C7 cents up to 09 cents, but
very few bought It at the higher
price, and Its tumble was quick, 6. being
marked in the first half minute's trading.
It recovered again toCTK cents very quickly,
and later it reached 65) cents. It broke
later to 0C, cents, but tne market milled
some with the lato strength in wheat, and
closed at C7H cents.
Good buying of oats for export, both hero
and in Now York, frightened the shorts,who
literally tumbled over one another in their
efforts to cover, forcing prices up 162'
cents.
Tho provision market was rather active,
and notwithstanding heavy receipts of hoars
and lower prices for them, the products
w ere inclined to tlrmness. The fluctuations
were narrow, and the changes from yester
day's closing prices small.
The leading futures ranged as follows, aa

Condition and Outlook of The Market

A KEW ELDORADO IN THE WEST.
Some Encouraging Features in Local Specu
lation, and no Bad Ones,
OFFICE AND STREET NEWS AND GOSSIP.
Eenl estate brokers and -dealers without
exception, so far as knownj'entertnin san
guine expectations of a large business: the
coming fall. The summer lull has whetted
the appetites of buyers and steadied the
market. It is not likely that there will be
much change in values. They are strong,
and will remain so. About tho only excep
tions will be in the cases of owners of lots
pressed for money by reason of the strikes.
Business properties present a flim front.
Their comparative scarcity in desirable
localities puts buyers somewhat at the
mercy of owners. The trend has been up
ward for several years, and there is nothing
in sight upon which to baso anticipation of
a reaction. Rapid transit, whilo proving
nn important factor In building up the out
skirts has also been a boon to buyers. It has
opened up all the districts around the city.
Formerly tho buyer was restricted in his
choico of location to the East End or the
Northside, but now he has a wide field for
selection, and if he cannot sccuro terms in
one placo to suit ho can go to another. This
competition has a restraining influence upon
owners 01 suDuruau properties.
From theso
nnd other considerations which will occur
to the reader, it is considered safe to say
that values will remain at about their pre
sent level during the remainder of the year.
Next vear tho country will experience tho
full effects of the big crops, and values may
swing upward.
A Kcw Eldorado.
Reports are coming in of large finds of
gold in Middle and Western Washington
nnd nlso in Colorado. Neither region has
been fully explored. Tho former is being
rapidly populated, and while the latter has
been long settled the population is a drift
ing one. The mining spirit has been de
voted almost exclusively to tho production
of silver, and the undeveloped portions of
Colorado have bceir negloctcd. An expert
states that this region contains froo gold
ores capable of yielding, generation alter
generation, many times the yearly output
01 uuuomia. it is oenoveu uy tno dcsi in
formed men that it will bo turning out $150,
000,000 of gold per year within the next ten
years. If these rcpoi ts turn out to be true,
the production of gold will bo greatly in
creased. At present it hardly reaches $40,
000,000 per year.

TOO MUCH TRACTION FOIt THE CA
PACITY OF TIIE MARKET.
A Whirl In Wheeling Gas on Field Devel
opment Electric Shows Signs of Vitality
Philadelphia Gas Alive and Kicking
Tractions in Bad Order.
Local stock traders did not have their war
paint on yesterday, and tho day passed with
little to show for it. Total sales were 15
shares and two memberships.
The feature of the day was a sharp ad
vance in Wheeling Gas. Opening at 22, it
advanced to 23 at the second call and to 23
at the third. The close was stiong at this
figure. The bulge was based on another big
oil well nt McDonald and tho good condition
of tho compnny generally. Many think the
stock will go still Higher.
Chartiers Gas was refused at 7. From tho
last showing of the company it is hard to ac
count for the disfavor into which it has
lallen.
Philadelphia Gas was steady, with a con
siderable number of orders unfilled. It is
said its earnings the coming fall and winter
will be greater than for two or three years.
Arrangements have been made to meet any
roasonable demnnd for gas.
Luster was clipped a. traction. An insider
said yesterday a leport of operations at the
mine would he made the eaily part of next
month.
Electric, responding to a movement in
New York, was bid up to 11 without sales.
It is the opinion or several well.posted brok
ers that this stock will soon be an nctive
factor in the market. Reorganization is so
nearly completed that there is 110 longer
reason to anticipate a failure.
The regular tractions were weaker, if any
thing, and the same may bo said of tho un
listed group. Manchester wns offered at
PITTSBURG ' DISPATCH.
38Ji and Birmingham atlEJi. For Citizens
Traction 5' 1 06 was bid. There is too much
of this stock for the present capacity of the
market. Sules were:

Second call 10 Switch and Signal at 7.
Third call no sales.

A REVIVAL OF CONFIDENCE
MARKS TIIE DATS TRANSACTIONS IN
STOCKS AND BONDS.
Time Money Easier The Near Future With
out a Discernible Cloud Grangers by
Far the Most Prominent, Tint Industrials
Also Active A Hond Revival.
New Yoke, August 20. The stock market
to-day again gave evidence of tho revlvnl of
confidence among all classes of operators,
and the course of prices during tho day was
most discouraging to those who are looking
for a material reaction in stocks. London
was again n heavy seller, and Dear manipu
lation was not wanting to make a serious
depression, but tho volume of buying for tho
outside account was such that not only wore
the free offerings absorbed, but marked ad
vances in ninny cases were seen.
Another evidence of a general increase in
conlldenco In higher prices in the market,
was the easier tendency in time money, with
a relaxation of the late severe semtiny of
collaterals, while the long expected revival
of interest and business in tho bond market
is one of the mo.st influential factors in the
situation. The Union Pacific matter is out
of the wny.at least for the present, and the
market lias no cloud upon it; and " hile it
still lacks breadth the number of stocks
traded in from day to day shows a most en
couraging increaso.
Tho Grangers, as usual of late, absorbed
most of tho attention of operators, nnd whilo
St. Paul and Atchison were most largelv
traded in, Bnrliugton and Rock Island dis
played tho most pronounced strength. Out
side of Union Pacific the Gould stocks wero
given more attention, and the Industrials
again became prominent both for activity
and strength. Sugar, Cotton Oil and Cord
age all scored handsome gains. Sugar was
specially strong, whilo new life was given
Cordugc, .nd It spurted up 1 per cent to 9t.
The market Anally closed iairly active and
still rather heavy at but slight changes for
the day in most eases.
Railroad bonds showed a falling off In
activity, tho transactions footing yp l,5Gl,
000, but tho strength shown was more steady
than that injshares, and the final changes
this evening show many marked gains.

PILLOW OF THE INVALID.

Will Not Sutler From Heat.
New York Tribune.
"My pillow is so hot!" is the frequent
plaint of the tired invalid who vainly seeks
some cool spot on which to rest her fevered
head. "Change the pillows frequently,"
we arc told by an authority on nursing, "as
nothing is more restful to a patient in sum
mer than to have a cool support to head and
back." Tho-following suggestion therefore,
may prove to he of service:
Take writing paper of any kind old let
ters and envelopes can all be made of use
and cut in strips of two inches long nnd
about halfnn iuch wide. Cyri these with a
dull knife, and after stuffing the pillow case
with them sciv up the end. The result will
be a very comfortable pillow through which
there will be a constant circulation of air,
and which will remain perfcotly cool.

Country Produce (Jobbing prices)
Our quotations on creamery butter are again
advanced, in accordance with the facts. It
is seldom that choice creamery is as scarce
in this market as it has been the past few
weeks. Eggs are quiet, and lOc per dozen
is the prevailing price for job lots. Produce
commission houses arc overstocked with
peaches and melons, and the situation nil
along the line of fruits and vegetables is
favorable to the buyer. Gardeners from
nearby complain that, while stuff is plenti
ful, it is hard to sell at very low prices,
necessitating much work and little pay. At
the Diamond mnrkots the best tomatoesand
cucumbers are slow nt 60c per bushel basket.
There have been sales in the past day ortwo
at thrc'o baskets for $L Last season at this
timo tomatoes sold here at $1 per basket and
upward. Potntocs are steadily gaining in
quality nnd demand Is Improving, with
prices higher than they were at the begin
ning of the week. Receipts of bananas aro
light the past week in comparison with re
ceipts a few weeks gone. But ss it is there
aro more than enough to meet nil demands,
and markets are weak.

THE SIX OCEAN GBKYH0UNDS.
Under Like Conditions They Would Cross
tho Atlantic In the Same Time.
New York World.
It is generally conceded that there are
six ships which are about equal in point of
speed. These are the Majestic and Teu
tonic, of the "White Star Line; the Oity of
Pnris and the City of New York, of the
Inman Line; the Fuerst Bismarck, of the
Hamburg-American Line, and La Touraine,
of the French Line.
As between these vessols a fast voyage is
a matter of conditionss outside of the ship.
It has been said, and it is very likely true,
that tinder the same condition these vessels
would travel nt the same rate of speed.
People are likely to lose sight of the per
formances of the ships of the Hamburg and
the French Lines, because the, greatest in
terest centers in the time from Queeustown
to Xew York, and neither of those two lines
touches at Queenstown. As a matter of fact
the City of Xew York has made a record
that has not been equaled, in that she made
over 500 miles for four days. The City of
Paris over 500 miles for three successive
days. The JIajcstic made over 500 miles on
one day only. Had the City of Paris had
the most favorable conditions on her famous
vovaee there is little donbt but that she
would have made the journey
faster time.

INOALLS' E00E ON PALESTINE.
The Brilliant Ex-Senntor Is Likely to Go
Deeper Than More Description.
New York World.
Ex-Scnntor Ingalls, while abroad, will
visit Palestine and thoroughly explore the
theater of the great movement and tragedy
which inaugurated the Christian era. He
will spend several months there, and it is
not improbable that the public may profit
by his visit in the way of a book. The
volume, if written, will not be merely a
record of travel, relieved by picturesque
descriptions of the country as it appears to
day, but will be of a- more ambitious and
important nature and deal with the great
spintti.il questions suggested by the pro
lonndly interesting environment.
3Ir. ingalls has always exhibited a fond
ness for speculation of that character. He
is an agnostic, but at the same time a close
student of the Bible and an ardent lover of
the poetry and philosophy that pervade
many of the sacred books. In his famous
tribute to the memory of Ben Hill, he of
fended many orthodox people by the views
he more suggested than expressed with re
gard -to the future; but since then, on more
than one occasion, he has, while recanting
nothing of the real meaning of those first
utterances, made himself better understood
on the topic thnt men account the highest
offered for consideration.
